Christians in Iraqi Kurdistan

In March of 2023, a group of researchers from the Danube Institute in Budapest, Hungary, undertook three weeks of intensive fieldwork in Iraqi Kurdistan, visiting major cities, small towns and villages throughout the region. The research is part of a multi-nation project, Attacks on Christian Communities and Institutions, which is jointly sponsored by the Danube Institute, Hungary Helps and the Batthyány Lajos Foundation. This book represents the fruits of this research. In its pages you will hear church leaders, government officials and military officers as well as ordinary citizens in their own voices. Included also are academic articles from noted scholars and NGO leaders as well as detailed transcripts of the interviews conducted by the Danube Institute researchers. Together this book presents a complete picture of the situations of both Christians and Yezidis in Iraqi Kurdistan in the period immediately following the defeat of ISIS.
